Why should Sakurai add(again) 2 Marios to the roster instead of either another main villain with a large fanbase, or Geno who has a gigantic fanbase and had the same votes than diddy, Ridley and Ike? It makes no sense, and it would be incredibly stupid to have 2 marios... again. Even if they're movesets are diferent is completly stupid to waste a character slot in a Mario alterego.

Edit:

@abovepost:

Yes but Bowser Jr. was the big baddie in Sunshine.

editedittydit:

Bowser Jr. on the other hand deserves the spot completely. The reason why I don't think he's going to get it though, is that he's a second Bowser, and that we'll have a second Mario before that. Now I know as well as the next poster that Bowser Jr. would play nothing like Bowser, but that doesn't change the fact that he's still another Bowser.
The same can be said about Mario.

Right behind you with a knife.
Actually it's not that dumb, since it happened before. Plus Mario is the most well known and popular video game character out there. And heck, his paper form does represent more of the franchise than Bowser Jr. And as I said before, although Bowser Jr. is his own character, he's still a second Bowser. Why would we get a second version of him before Mr. Video Game himself?

As for Geno, there is the problem that he is a third party character. He was mentioned the same amount of times as Diddy and Ike also, though in something that too many people mistake as a poll. (It wasn't popularity) The real problem as I see it though is that he represents so little in such a big series. One game and one cameo. That's it. He has as much priority as Fawful if judged by that alone. (You know this also makes me think of Mallow, and how it'd be kinda awkward that he'd be the only one from SMRPG not included.)

(And Pieman is right, that wasn't a poll, it was a collection of suggestions that people sent to sakurai. He and his team replied to the post they fond interesting and showed us those post. . . If I remember correctly Sakurai stressed the point that this wasn't a popularity contast and wanted people to NOT suggest the same character over and over in hopes of them "winning".) [/COLOR]

I feel people should read these. . .STOP calling it a "poll".

Even if Bowser Jr. does not make it because he's "another bowser" then why is Paper Mario appearing before Geno? it makes no sense to add another mario again. but meh, i'm not in the mood of having an argument, believe what you whant.

Still Geno has Larger fanbase by far. And it's more original than yet another mario. If you're going to add MORE mario characters i seriously doubt Sakura whants to do an alter ego, by your logic the Black Knight is a shoe in.

Before Bowser Jr. or Geno, the Mario representative that I see is Paper Mario.

Geno for all intents and purposes has one game under his belt and a cameo. He was also not the star of said game. Outside of the popularity, there is no justification for him. I'd like to see him, as he was my favorite character from that game, but people have to be realistic here.
For SMRPG, did anyone else think that the star was not only Mario but also Geno and Mallow? I did. So he was in 2 games, big deal. This is not a popularity contest. I am sure it was a shock when the Ice Climbers debuted into Melee and with Geno, it will make the same impact.

Realistic?! When I say "Geno for Brawl!" I am being very realistic. 100% realistic. How unrealistic is it?! He scored a 4 on Sakurai's poll. Sakurai has great interest in Geno. Ho more realistic can it get?

Jr isn't even ON Sakurai's poll - apparently he doesn't even find him interesting enough for a single mention.

I'd much rather have an interesting character like Geno, who actually has a lot of fan support, over something like Jr, whom people want to add just because he's been around a lot lately. Existing =/= Deserving.

Geno wasn't the main character though. He was important, don't get me wrong, but the name of the game was Super Mario RPG. His little cameo as I said also went unnamed. The thing with other characters that are never heard of, is that they are the stars of their own series, and don't take away from more deserving characters in their own franchises. Geno does though. There's a long list of characters that should get in before him, including Bowser Jr. And heck, without popularity, there's nothing that promotes Geno high enough to go over characters like Birdo or Waluigi. And as said, he was commented on 4 times, but that doesn't say anything to his standings, as it wasn't about popularity.

Being related to another character doesn't warrant a spot in Brawl - just like simply being shoved down our throats recently doesn't warrant a spot in Brawl.

Jr isn't mentioned by Sakurai on his poll ONCE. Geno, however, is right up there with Diddy and Ike, who are already in.

Legend of Zelda.
Main character? LINK DURR.

When I first got Melee I was all like "lol wtf hoo r th ice climerzz?/???//"

There's a long list of characters that should get in before him, including Bowser Jr.
Um, I heard that Bowser Jr. didn't ven deserve a spot period. I will admit that there may be a few characters that should get in before Geno but Bowser Jr.?

Uhhhh no.
And heck, without popularity, there's nothing that promotes Geno high enough to go over characters like Birdo or Waluigi.
This isn't a god**** popularity contest. It is Brawl. I think someone even told me one time that popular characters are boring.

And as said, he was commented on 4 times, but that doesn't say anything to his standings, as it wasn't about popularity.
To me, it says "GENO CONFIRMED"
Again, it is not a popularity contest.

And Jr DID have his own game? He was a SORT OF villain once, and a villain's mediocre sidekick twice.

Well guess what, dipstick? It doesn't MATTER what you think, because he already IS on the poll - 4 mentions, *****.

But isn't it called a poll? =/
No, it's called a "journal". A "poll" adds up votes and gives results about said votes as in "The polls show that Mrs. Clinton is more supported here than other runners".

THIS is a poll http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=81891&highlight=melee+poll+1999

What Sakurai did was have people send him and his team suggestions for things like characters and items and than posted the suggestions that he and his team fond interesting enuff to reply about on his public journal. Those are not "votes", they are simply suggestions and could have been chosen for any reason.

I love it when people go "Geno is just a puppet."

It's obvious that you haven't even played SMRPG if you think he is just a puppet. Since that isn't even his real form anyway >_>
